AWP is the brand new development in photopolymer plate technology by Asahi Photoproducts. For the first time, Asahi is marketing a solid water-washable plate.
This particular product satisfies the most severe criteria in terms of high quality printing and does more to match the current technologies.

"The printing results were outstanding and the comments from the operators were: easy to set impression, improved ink release, less plate cleaning required and the highlights printed clean."

AWP DEF produces superior results to traditional or thermal technologies and even outperforms the latest generation of digital flexographic printing plates. In addition to the usual benefit of Asahi plate products, this AWP DEF plate gives a level of graphic reproduction similar to digital plates, with a higher ink transfer and a wider tonal range.
